> ssssmokinn whats your best 60’ time? please tell me better than mine. 2.13 i cut…would have been an awesome pass for me on pump/street tires, but i missed 4th just past the 1000’ mark and still went 13.7 @ 86 coasting/braking

my best 60’ with the cam was 2.5…before the cam, 2.2 60’

yup…launching at 2k and bogging below 1k with a big cam will do that too ya.

You should just have somebody teach you how to drive it.  
Let somebody else drive it at the track and see how fast it goes and then you run it and see how fast it goes and then find out what youre doing wrong.

Just make sure its not John- he’ll blow it up. :tongue

I know it seems like forever but it hasnt been that long. I drove it at the track last September but it ran like shit.
